Watching those touch & goes brought back memories of learning to fly at Cumbernauld airport in Scotland ten years ago. Every single landing the airport would charge me a fee of about $10. This is one of many reasons why the GA community in America needs to keep fighting hard against user fees! Thankfully they didn't charge extra for all the bouncy landings I did. Keep up the great progress, Brady!

Hi Brady. Here I am again. Practice makes things perfect. Even after hundreds of landings every once in a while landings aren't perfect. Setting your standards high is good but that can lead to being hard on yourself. Keep it up and stay focused. Good going!

The video series is a great idea. Can't wait until you're cleared to solo.You'll not forget that next day when you go out to the plane , do the walk around and say to yourself I'm flying this airplane with no one else beside me. What A feeling ! Looks like you're a quick learner, the solo day is right around the corner.

Hi Brady. I showed your website to a pilot friend of mine. He was impressed with your videos. One thing he mentioned is that you should have a disclaimer with you radio check list sheet. That sheet will not work if you are flying into Grand Rapids MI. Class C or B are different then where you fly ( class D ). He was afraid of legal stuff. I am promoting your site to others so they are encouraged by what you are doing. Keep it up.

Brady, Stick with it, we all had good and bad days when learning. I had trouble with cross wind landing. Two instructor and 255 hrs since 1986 no problem now. The more you fly the better your are. I also am at leve 12 in the wongs program. You should consider it after getting your lincese, it keeps you sharp.

Brady, I have been wanting to learn how to fly for a long time and now being retired as of two hears ago at 48, ready to get started now. I have not talked with an instructor as of yet but I know a pilot in my neighborhood that I have talked to. By watching your video it has made me want to start now. You are doing great and I wish you the best of luck, I just hope I can do the things you were doing. Being a former police officer , I was used to doing several things at the same time, trying to hear three different radios, drive and use the computer and wonder what I was going to get into on the call. It seemed that your hands were busy all the time and you made it look easy with the skill you have. Again, good luck and thanks for reading this.

Brady, I just found your "learning to fly" video blog today and I am very excited. I have always wanted to get my pilots license and I hope I am not too old. I am 63 and may finally have the time to pursue this dream. I have watched a couple of the videos and they are very informative. Do you think learning in a plain with a "stick" is easier than one with a "yoke"? If I purchase a plane it will most likely be a Cessna 182. Keep up the good work and fly safe.

Congratulations Brady. Its a terrific series and even though I am only on video 10 or 11 I already know the outcome. I'll catch up yet. BTW, on landings, you mention Steve Krogs article on setting up in EAA Llearn to fly. Do you know the month/year?
Thanks so much, may the wind always be at your back (better gas mileage) until you land! Cheers,
__ Mark

A landing you walk away from is a good landing.
